BEST Science Gift for Kids

Caspian is all about exploring the natural world. In fact, the funniest thing happened when Kevin was talking about making rolls with yeast the other day. He asked what yeast was and Kevin said "little animals". Based on that, Caspian decided he was going to be a vegetarian. It really didn't work out for him (he loves the meats), but we found out a few days later he thought Kevin meant chinchillas and hamsters and such. With a microscope, he could SEE the little animals and know they weren't hamsters. I bet he would love that. And I have just the source.

Caspian could definitely check for chinchillas in his soup with those babies. (Isn't it rather comical that he had no problem eating the chickens, but it was the "little animals" that bugged him!)
